Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolRobert Piccone is a founder and principal data scientist/engineer with over two decades of experience designing and delivering production-grade data platforms, analytics, and ML solutions across finance, genomics, healthcare, marketing, and supply chain. A Columbia M.S. in Data Science graduate, he blends deep domain expertise with hands-on implementation—building Snowflake/Matillion and Databricks/PySpark lakes, ETL pipelines, and NLP and Bayesian genomics algorithms for hedge funds and research labs. He has led product-grade analytics teams and sole-sourced complex engagements, turning disparate, unstructured data into unified sources of truth and BI-ready layers for decision-making. Notable but less obvious: he bridges high-stakes finance use-cases (multi-billion-dollar AUM clients) with experimental genomics work, demonstrating an uncommon mix of rigor in both production systems and academic research. Available for corp-to-corp contracts as team lead, contributor, or solo architect, he focuses on pragmatic, auditable solutions that scale.
